If you are hesitant to reach out about legal advice or representation, I highly recommend reaching out to Catalina! She is so warm, kind, professional and knowledgeable. She is empathetic and her heart is in the right place. She truly cares about her clients while also being extremely professional and knowledgeable. I felt truly taken care of every step of the way. I also am autistic and have multiple disabilities and Catalina was extremely kind and understanding. Thank you so much Catalina and Forte Law, you were all wonderful to work with! - Chelsea

I had a great experience working with Jessica Forman at Forte Law for help with a severance package. I was caught off guard by a sudden termination of employment and wasn’t sure if what I was being offered was fair. Jessica took the time to explain everything clearly, broke down my options, and helped me feel a lot more in control of the situation.

She was knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely easy to talk to — which made a stressful situation so much more manageable. She handled the negotiations calmly and professionally, and in the end, I received a significantly improved offer.

What really stood out was how approachable and supportive Jessica was throughout the process. I never felt rushed or pressured, and I always felt like she had my best interests in mind.

If you’re navigating a severance or any kind of employment issue, I highly recommend Jessica Forman and the team at Forte Law. They know their stuff and truly care about the people they’re helping.

My experience working with Jim Wu was exceptional. He was very supportive and knowledgeable regarding maternity leave benefits. He was very professional and his service was affordable. His communication was excellent as well. My daughter and I are forever grateful!

A few months ago I was in the process of moving on from my previous employer and met with Catalina to discuss and navigate the transition. I received very detailed advice and further follow up which ultimately led to a smooth transition. Great experience overall and would recommend her to others in challenging scenarios.

如果可以打六颗星，我一定会给吴律师（Jim Wu）。他不仅在劳动法方面非常专业，更是一个非常正直、有同理心的人。

在我最艰难、最无助的一年里，是吴律师一直站在我身边，坚定支持我。他没有因为我是一个弱势的普通员工就轻视我，反而始终尊重我、鼓励我，帮我一步步争取我应得的权利和尊严。

在员工和雇主的博弈中，员工往往处于劣势。但吴律师愿意用他的专业知识、勇气和强烈的正义感为我发声。他不是把我当成一个“案件”，而是真正把我当成一个人来看待，理解我、支持我、陪伴我。

很多次我都觉得自己快撑不下去了，是他的坚持和温暖给了我继续走下去的力量。他不仅是一个好律师，更是我在那段黑暗时期的灯塔。

真的非常感谢吴律师，也希望有更多像我一样身处困境的人，能遇到这样一位为正义而努力的好律师。

吴律师，衷心祝愿您人生顺遂、万事如意！愿您一直用您的正义感和专业能力，去帮助更多需要帮助的人。

If I could give six stars, I really would. Jim Wu isn’t just a great employment lawyer — he’s someone with true integrity and empathy.

During the most difficult and helpless year of my life, it was Mr. Wu who stood by my side and supported me with unwavering commitment. He never looked down on me just because I was a vulnerable employee — instead, he consistently treated me with respect, encouraged me, and helped me fight step by step for the rights and dignity I deserved.

In the struggle between employees and employers, the employee is often at a disadvantage. But Mr. Wu was willing to speak up for me with his expertise, courage, and strong sense of justice. He didn’t treat me like just another ‘case’ — he saw me as a real person, someone worth understanding, supporting, and standing beside.

There were so many times when I felt like I couldn’t hold on any longer, but it was his perseverance and kindness that gave me the strength to keep going. He wasn’t just a good lawyer — he was a beacon of light during one of the darkest times in my life.

I’m truly grateful to Mr. Wu, and I sincerely hope that more people who are going through difficult times like I was can have the good fortune of meeting a lawyer like him — someone who truly fights for justice.

Mr. Wu, I wholeheartedly wish you all the best in life. May you continue to use your sense of justice and professional expertise to help those who need it most.

Catalina was amazing! She is not only professional and knowledgeable, but she is also empathetic, realistic, and easy to talk to. Jessica was wonderful as well. I highly recommend Forte and will plan to use them again in the future. Thanks Catalina and Jessica!

Forte Workplace Law was very helpful and professional in assisting me with my severance negotiations. Christie Gilmour was very straight forward to talk to, as she guided me through the various processes in a thorough and thoughtful way. I highly recommend anyone considering legal advice or assistance, call Forte!
